I Foods such as applesauce, cranberries, pearl barley, oatmeal or other
cereals, noodles and pasta, or rhubarb should not be cooked under
pressure in the pressure cooker. These foods tend to foam, froth and
sputter, and may block the floating valve.
I The exterior and the lid become hot during use. Do not touch hot
surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
I WARNING: Keep hands and face away from the Pressure Limiting
Valve when releasing pressure.
I While the unit is in operation, never remove the lid.
I After cooking, use extreme caution when removing the lid. Serious
burns can result from steam inside the unit.
I CAUTION: When removing the lid, there could be a suction created
between the inner pot and lid.
I Extreme caution should be used when moving any appliance
containing hot food or liquid.
I Do not attempt to dislodge food when the appliance is plugged in.
I CAUTION: Perishable foods such as meat and poultry products, fish,
cheese and dairy products cannot be left at room temperature for
more than 2 hours. (No longer than 1 hour when the room
temperature is above 90°F) When cooking these food, do not set
the delay time function for more than 1-2 hours.
I DANGER: Never deep fry or pressure fry in the pressure cooker.
It is dangerous and may cause a fire and serious damage.
I Using attachments not recommended or sold by the manufacturer may
cause hazards.
I Make sure appliance is off before unplugging from electric outlet.
I Always unplug before cleaning and removing parts.
I To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse plug, cord or
housing in water or any other liquid.
I Servicing or repair should only be completed by a qualified technician.
I DANGER: Do not lift the unit with cover handle, use side handles
only.
I DO NOT put your hand or face near the steam releasing hole when the
Pressure Limiting Valve is being moved to the "Exhaust" position.
I DO NOT touch the Lid when it is in cooking process or immediately
after the cooking process to avoid scald. This is because time is needed
for the Lid to cool down.
